On Friday's Morning Joe, making the case for why Biden's blatantly partisan-political speech on Thursday night was justified, Joe Scarborough claimed:
"You have Lindsey Graham talking about if, if Donald Trump's held to the same standard as every other American, then Republicans are going to go out and burn down cities.

You lying fill-in-the-blank, Scarborough. You really want to talk about people burning down cities?
Ping to liberal Media Criticism list.
Even so, does anyone not believe RINO GrahamIdiot has said some pretty dumb ass sh*t?
Did Joe complain when Antifa and BLM ACTUALLY burned down cities?
Last week, Lindsey did say something that was needlessly and foolishly close to that. I wondered then, why he said it, knowing how every statement concerning direct aggression is pounced upon by the Dems or RINOS.
I think he said:
“There will be riots in the street if Trump is prosecuted!”
Uh, that was BLM and Antifa.
BLM leader: If change doesn’t happen, then ‘we will burn down this system’
By Mark Moore———— New York Post
June 25, 2020
The president of Greater New York Black Lives Matter said that if the movement fails to achieve meaningful change during nationwide protests over George Floyd’s killing by Minneapolis police officers, it will “burn down this system.”
“If this country doesn’t give us what we want, then we will burn down this system and replace it. All right? ....” Hawk Newsome said during an interview Wednesday evening on “The Story” with Martha MacCallum.
“Let’s be very real,” he told the Fox News host. “Let’s observe the history of the 1960s, when black people were rioting. We had the highest growth in wealth, in property ownership. Think about the last few weeks since we started protesting. There have been eight cops fired across the country.”
He said in past incidents involving fatal encounters with citizens, police officers were always allowed due process, but when people begin to destroy property, things change.
“What is this country rewarding? What behavior is it listening to? Obviously not marching. But when people get aggressive and they escalate their protests, cops get fired, Republican politicians talking about police reform,” he said.
MacCallum asked Newsome what Black Lives Matter hoped to achieve through violence.
“Wow, it’s interesting that you would pose that question like that,” Newsome responded, “because this country is built upon violence. What was the American Revolution? What’s our diplomacy across the globe?”
So for any American to accuse us of being violent is extremely hypocritical,” Newsome added.
The unrest has continued across the country since Floyd’s death on May 25, with the marchers calling for police reforms.
But the protests have sometimes turned violent, with looting and arson.
The protesters have also targeted monuments and statues, including those of Confederate soldiers and the Founding Fathers, spray-painting them with graffiti and pulling them to the ground.
As the interview concluded, Newsome added, “I just want black liberation, and black sovereignty. By any means necessary.”
Joe is on a rampage; Mika had a headache again last night.
From the article:
Graham did cite the possibility of riots. That was ill-advised, and Graham subsequently clarified his remark, saying “I reject violence. I’m not calling for violence.”
But—not to put too fine a point on it—Scarborough was outright lying when he claimed that Graham had claimed that Republicans would “burn down cities.”
Thanks for the clarification.
Remember Linda is deep in the land of GOPe. I can’t believe that RINO don’t have a horn growing out of his nose.
Democrats organized to collect money to bail out terrorists of BLM and Antifa when they were burning down cities, specifically Kamala Harris, who said they shouldn’t stop. Who are the terrorists?
Why was that needless and foolish? Why can’t we play by the same rules as the left?
Scarborough’s murder for hire of Lori Klausustis, who was not an intern, but a married with children paid staffer of a Romney Republican is a sword of Damocles over his head, as his cuckholding wife Mika well knows.
Hawk ought be let fly off a high bridge.
I thought he did that at the behest of the DemocRats, hoping that his statement would legitimize rioting in the minds of some Republicans. Unfortunately for the ‘Rats, no one pays attention to Linda Graham any more.
The Dems pay attention to Lindsey when he walks into the proverbial Rake and says something ambiguous, something they can throw back into our GOP faces when it suits their agenda, like this.
Mika and Moron is still on TV?
As the BLM and Antifa peacefully burn down cities.
When does the line cross about Libel & Slander????
Someone needs to sue Scarborough out of everything he owns.
